    Thanks lookingforme! You're going to do really well with your parents, you've got this. And it sounds like they're supportive. Deep breaths, you're going to do well. (&&&)

    Jedi, my sleepy brain can't locate the playlist thread from this morning. Probably right in front of my face, but, oh well. You might also want to check out the podcast Homoground. I haven't listened to it a lot, but I think it'ls basically radio sets of LGBTetc artists.

    I'm really happy for you. You have an amazing dad! I kind of teared up reading it...all I could think was that I hope I can be that kind of dad to my own little girl.

    Thanks Bluesteel, Kevin and sorrel!! :kiss:

    Katchoo - thanks for checking for me, and for this new suggestion for my playlist. I'm really digging the stuff by Tegan and Sarah right now that someone else suggested and I'm going to check out all the sites you're talking about too :slight_smile:. I'm excited to rock out to all of this stuff!
